Family Learning and School Services

Through its many interactive programs, the museum continues to captivate children, their families, and school groups with transformational interactions. In 2015, our talented interpreters gave convincing performances, bringing important topics and individual perspectives to life. The museum’s successful preschool program continued to jumpstart a love of learning while teachers and schools relied on the museum as a cornerstone of interactive learning.

The Children’s Museum is committed to supporting K–8 education and enhancing educational experiences through its school services. Professional development programs, workshops, and networking events for educators rounded out the year’s activities.
